Chapter 920 Who is the protagonist

Chapter 920 Who is the protagonist
In the early morning of the next day, there was no early court, and the ministers waited for the emperor to go on tour early, and lined up to leave the city through Deshengmen.

Because the nearby Jishuitan is the north ferry of the capital, the terminal of the train is set not far from the city gate, which is convenient for water and land transfer.

Yang Shen followed the Imperial Academy team to Desheng gate early.

As soon as he stood still, Shi Ping, a Hanlin scholar, came over, as if he had brought someone's instructions, called Yang Shen aside, and said in a low voice: "...Yongxiu, no matter what, don't stand out today, let others do it. .”

Yang Shen's ambition was not paid, and he was waiting to perform well today. Hearing this, he couldn't help but glared at Shi Pang: "Scholar Shi, what are you doing?"

Shi Ping said: "Jiang Zhongtang sent someone to inform you, let me persuade you, His Majesty may promote you as a Hanlin Bachelor, and the time is only two days. If you rashly come forward, I'm afraid... It will backfire."

"Ok?"

Yang Shen's expression was gloomy.

Yang Shen still wanted to pursue things like fame and wealth. He was not a saint after all, but he was not allowed to shrink back when it came to the big issue of right and wrong.

Maybe Zhu Hao was allowed to stand out before, but in the end it hurt Zhu Hao, affected his reputation, and even made him lose face in front of his father, which made him learn from the pain.

"No!"

Yang Shen answered after thinking for a while, "A man will do something and not do it. How can you be timid at such a time? Your Majesty will sincerely ask me to be a Hanlin scholar? Even if I do, who will accept it?"

Shi Ping said: "Yongxiu is not only promoted to the Imperial Academy, but His Majesty also seems to intend to let you into the cabinet."

"Bachelor Shi, or His Majesty wants to use this to prevent me from coming forward to object, but it is just some delaying tactics that cannot be put on the table. I am very clear about my position, and Bachelor Shi should not mention it again."

Yang Shen was firm.

Shi Pang couldn't say anything more, the words that should be passed on were passed on, and what Yang Shen would do next, it seemed that he was really beyond Shi Ping's ability to interfere.

Otherwise, others would think that Yang Shen's participation in the ceremony was instigated by him, Shi Yan.

There are so many people in the court who are timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and dare not directly collide with the emperor on the issue of grand ceremony, and Shi Yan doesn't want to be the first bird.

……

……

In the crowd of Hanlin Academy, there was one more person.

After Yang Shen watched Shi Pang leave, he saw from afar that some people were greeting him.

It is Zhang Cong.

Zhang Cong had just received the official transfer order from the imperial court, and he regarded him as a servant of the Imperial Academy, and he was on the same level as Yang Shen. Moreover, Zhang Cong was busy in Nanjing for the ceremony. Many people knew very well that this time he entered the Imperial Academy. People use the past to congratulate them on their "promotion" and deliberately seek friendship.

This made Yang Shen very disdainful.

"Isn't this what Shi Yang said? I've admired your name for a long time, and I'm going to be polite to Zhang Cong."

Seeing Yang Shen bringing a few people over with a dark face, Zhang Cong took the initiative to salute and greet him.

With a cold smile on Yang Shen's face, he said: "Your Excellency came down really fast... Didn't I hear that you just left Nanjing not long ago? You've arrived in the capital now?"

Zhang Cong said: "The emperor's life is in him, so I dare not delay."

"The emperor's order? What emperor's order did you bear?"

Yang Shen's words were tit for tat.

I originally intended to come here to have a relationship with Zhang Cong, but at this moment, I couldn't help but hide away... Now that this is a confrontation between old and new forces, when Yang Shen troubles Zhang Cong, it is better to keep away from irrelevant people. Reliable.

"Excuse me for not being able to explain."

Zhang Cong was quite depressed at first, he thought that he would be able to get the title of Hanlin Bachelor when he came to the capital, and then show his strengths, but in the end he was only a servant. Zhu Hao also clearly told him that today he is not the protagonist, he just needs to give Huang Zan just cooperates.

Being reprimanded by Yang Shen at this time, Zhang Cong's words undoubtedly wanted to gain confidence for himself and make others think he was awesome... Wasn't it expressing dissatisfaction, and at the same time completing the task Zhu Hao entrusted to him?

To attract firepower, as long as you attract other people's spearheads to yourself, it will be considered a success.

Invisibly, he also raised himself up.

Yang Shen was very dissatisfied with Zhang Cong's attitude, and shouted sharply: "Your Excellency, court etiquette is not something that a foreign minister should come forward to participate in. With your qualifications, you have not studied for a few years, so don't hit a stone with an egg."

Zhang Cong said with a smile: "I understand, I just do my duty, and sometimes express some simple opinions. I hope Shi Yang will make it right."

The chicken talks with the duck.

Yang Shen discovered that Zhang Zong was admitted to Jinshi at an old age, and he was really different from ordinary young Jinshi. He was a ghostly spirit, and it was really difficult to restrain him with ordinary methods.

"Luanjia is here."

Just when Yang Shen was about to have a good discussion with Zhang Cong before the ceremony, someone's reminder made him temporarily dismiss this idea.

The emperor's car drove over here and drove many ministers at the same time.

The emperor's tour also began at this time.

……

……

The ministers left the city in order.

Zhang Cong has been in the queue of the Imperial Academy, looking for Tang Yin's whereabouts, because he was ordered by Zhu Hao to hang out with Tang Yin today, after all, he doesn't know anyone in the Imperial Academy.

But Tang Yin was not seen until the team set off.

After leaving the city, there are many dwellings in front of Desheng Gate, a wide corridor, and the emperor's chariot in the middle. There are several suspicious chariots among them. The men and horses of the Beijing Camp are in charge of sealing the road, while the Jin Yiwei is in charge of clearing the way...

When we arrived in front of the newly built station, the sun had already risen high, and the surrounding flags were flying, and colorful silks were everywhere, which was very grand.

Zhang Cong searched around, and finally found Tang Yin who was talking with Sun Jiao's son Sun Yuan from the crowd.

"Mr. Tang."

Zhang Cong was very excited when he saw Tang Yin.

Tang Yin glanced in the direction of the viewing platform first, but the emperor hadn't shown up yet.

This is different from the Litian Ceremony. The station is relatively crowded, surrounded by many buildings, not in the wilderness. The emperor usually does not show up before the ceremony, and the absolute safety of the emperor must be ensured.

Tang Yin greeted: "Bingyong, don't come here without any problems."

Zhang Cong stepped forward and made a big gift, which made Sun Yuan on the side a little puzzled. Why did the most powerful general who was around the emperor seem to be so flattering and respectful to Tang Yin?
Who is the protagonist in today's ceremony?
"Mr. Tang, yesterday... I met... that one when I went down, he said, I must walk with Mr. Tang today." Zhang Cong saw Sun Yuan and several lower-level officials such as reviewers from the Imperial Academy next to him. , knowing that Zhu Hao's name cannot be mentioned.

Tang Yin said with a smile: "He told me."

Who?
Sun Yuan is not as sensible as others, he is more like a spectator, and he happened to be walking with Tang Yin, and they hit it off after talking, why did he step aside to take care of Zhang Cong?
Others are afraid of things, but he is not.

"Jingzong, the person who uses the words is the one who respects the Tao."

Tang Yin worried that Sun Yuan didn't understand, so he took the initiative to explain something to Sun Yuan.

Then Tang Yin introduced Sun Yuan to Zhang Cong.

When Zhang Cong knew that this was the eldest son of Sun Jiao's family and Zhu Hao's uncle, he suddenly felt a sense of "I'm going to fall out of favor", as if at this moment he realized that Zhang Cong was not the only one around Zhu Hao available.

"Jingzong is now an editor in the Imperial Academy. He has a higher official position than me and stronger ability than me. I am an old bone and have nothing to do in the Imperial Academy. If I hadn't been ordered to come here today, I would not want to come to such a crowded place. ...Fortunately, Jingzong is by my side, chatting with me to relieve my boredom."

Tang Yin is very free and easy.

Zhang Cong originally had a lot of "secret" important matters to tell Tang Yin, but seeing Tang Yin's appearance, he thought the other party was hypocritical, but seeing that Tang Yin could be on the rostrum, he went to a corner to talk to irrelevant people Sun Yuan chatted, indicating that Tang Yin might really have no intention of competing for fame and fortune.

Zhang Cong said: "I don't know what I can do today?"

Tang Yin was stunned by Zhang Cong's question.

what can you do?
Come to ask me?

Although Sun Yuan next to him looked puzzled, he still took the initiative to argue: "Zhang Shidu, it said that today the big ceremony will be discussed again. It seems that it will be held after the ceremony of the opening of the train. You don't have to worry. I have said hello, whoever wants to participate in the debate can go there at any time."

Zhang Cong was taken aback.

He was nervous and cramped. The main reason was that he had just returned to the capital yesterday, and today he came to watch the ceremony under the title of attendant of the Imperial Academy. He hadn't even entered the gate of the Imperial Academy, so he was completely unfamiliar with the process of today's ceremony.

In addition, he feels that he is not the protagonist, and he is afraid that he will not have any chance to perform, so he is eager to know what he can do to prove himself.

What he cares about is worthless in the eyes of Sun Yuan and Tang Yin.

Because neither Tang Yin nor Sun Yuan planned to speak out on the matter of Daliyi, when Sun Yuan explained the process to Zhang Cong, his tone was so calm that it seemed that this matter had nothing to do with him at all.

Zhang Cong asked, "Then why didn't Mr. Zhu come here today?"

"Mr. Zhu?"

Sun Yuan was startled, then looked at Tang Yin, not knowing who Zhang Cong was talking about.

Tang Yin said with a smile: "You mean Jingdao? What happened today seems to have everything to do with him, but in fact it doesn't have much to do with it. There are still many technical problems that require his advice. You can't see him today, but he He may be in charge of the overall situation around here... It can be said that he is here at any time today."

Not only Zhang Cong was surprised, even Sun Yuan was also taken aback.

It turns out that Zhu Hao also participated in the opening ceremony of the train today?Or the main character?

Zhang Cong said: "The matter of the train and railway is also related to Mr. Zhu?"

Tang Yin just kept laughing, there were some things he didn't want to explain too much to Zhang Cong.

Sun Yuandao: "I heard that Zhang Shidu has just returned to the capital, and many colleagues in the Imperial Academy probably don't know him. It's rare that almost everyone in the Imperial Academy is here today. Why don't I introduce you?"

Sun Yuan is also considered an enthusiastic person.

Tang Yin raised his hand to stop Sun Yuan, and said with a smile: "Jingzong, don't make things difficult for him. He doesn't have any other thoughts today. When he enters the Imperial Academy, he will have plenty of time to get to know his colleagues."

Zhang Cong was full of expectations for Tang Yin at the beginning, thinking that Tang Yin could lead him to glory.

At least I can take him to meet a saint or something.

Unexpectedly, Tang Yin looked like he had nothing to do with himself, Zhang Cong heard what he said and what he did, it sounded like "beating me up", you Tang Yin pulled away from things today, it seems that nothing has anything to do with you, but you don't know, in fact, I do everything, Is it all for His Majesty, for you people from Xingwangfu?
Why are you so irresponsible?
